Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was nothing short of delightful. The rooms were beautifully decorated, clean, and incredibly comfortable. While some service lapses were noted, the overall experience was positive. The location offered stunning views and peaceful surroundings, although traffic flow was a minor inconvenience. Dining was satisfactory with some room for improvement, and the facilities were enjoyable. Despite some drawbacks, the value for money was reasonable.
My stay at the hotel was lovely overall. The rooms had spa-like quality and offered beautiful views of the little town, but I was a bit disappointed that there was no coffee or bathroom amenities provided. I had to call the front desk multiple times because the TV wasn't working, which was a hassle. However, the room itself was relaxing, clean, and tastefully decorated like a mini apartment with a nice patio. The facilities were well-equipped with a microwave and a dormitory-sized refrigerator, adding convenience to my stay.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms are beautifully decorated with Alsatian decor and have a lovely balcony overlooking the valley and town, giving that perfect Hill Country look. The service was top-notch, with a friendly staff willing to go the extra mile. The location on top of a hill in Texas Hillside Country provided plenty of relaxing spaces. The dining experience was amazing, especially at the onsite restaurant. The facilities were just what I needed for a comfortable stay.
